:   (5) $$ (30)
+ (5)
(5 5 = 25 $)
The movement that led to the quantitative revolution in geography was begun
by physicists and mathematicians. It first transformed the physical and then the
biological sciences, and by the 1950s, was strongly represented in most of the social
sciences. The movement towards quantification was part of the general spread and
growth of modes of scientific analysis into a world formerly dominated by a concern
with the exceptional and the unique. As Burton noted, geography has long been a
following rather than a Leading discipline, in that the main currents of thought
adopted at various stages in geography have led to their origins in other fields. Thus,
the mechanistic approach in the nineteenth century science found expression in a
deterministic cause and effect approach to the study of man-environment
J-80-11

relationships. There was a similar mechanistic flavour in much of the recent work of
quantifiers. It was as if geography was reemerging after having lapsed into
ideography which had followed the retreat from environmental determinism, but
although quantification in geography had been mechanistic in orientation, the new
techniques being used were, in line with the prevailing trend in contemporary science,
probabilistic.
